Great hold!
This product is chef’s kiss. I use this on my 3b-3c curls and love it. This gives my hair volume shine and definition. If you have a tighter curl pattern i recommend brushing it in instead of scrunching it though, when i scrunch this product it gives me frizz. The texture of this product is very jelly like and smootn.

Best I’ve found for flaxseed gel dupe when traveling
For my naturally curly thin fine white girl hair, I LOVE using homemade flax seed gel—it’s the best. But it doesn’t travel well as it needs to be refrigerated. So I’ve been experimenting with some scrunching curl gels to find one that works well enough to use when I travel. THIS IS IT! For the most convenient style, I tip my head over and run my fingers through my hair applying plenty of this gel. Then I scrunch, flip over and shape a bit. Then I just let it air dry. It does get crunchy as it air dries (like flaxseed gel) but all you have to do once it’s dry is just scrunch, scrunch, scrunch all over and it will break the crunch but keep the curls soft and defined and looking so lovely with no frizz and great volume!I am very satisfied with this product and grateful to have found it!!! And great value!

Curls for days!
Love this gel! I have tried many products and this is the real deal! My curls have very little frizz, it's shiny and isn't weighed down. It's not sticky or crunchy. No clumping. I use a diffuser to dry most of the hair and the definition is fantastic. I only wash it every other day or 2 and after sleeping in a hair bonnet, I can refresh with simply using a spray bottle of water and the curls are as great as a fresh wash! I use the curling cream with it also.

Works great but...
Love this stuff but it does say it doesn't have that hard feeling when used I did mine right after I shampooed and conditioned my hair and it works great but did leave my hair a bit crunchy feeling al.oat like a hairspray would but other then that it works great eta on wavy thick hair . The scents good , it's easy to apply moisture level just isn't there but again I'll use it and even rebuy because it's parked better then most product I have bought and that speaks volumes great value for your money curl are cute !!

Not humidity proof. Flakes when mixed with other brands.
This gel Is great. It has a lot of slip, dries at a decent pace, and leaves my hair looking very bouncy with no crunch. It has a medium to light hold. What I don’t like about this gel is that i cannot mix this with other brands. Cocktailing this gel causes my hair to have flakes. And this gel does NOT do good in humidity. I believe this gel works best when mixed with products from the same brand (Umberto Giannini) and when there’s low humidity outside.

Defines curls without crunch
Love this curl jelly! It helps define curls and control frizz without making hair feel overly stiff or crispy. A little goes a long way and it gives curls a nice shape and hold.

This gel really works !
I had seen this gel on a hair routine video on Instagram. It is definitely a keeper for me ! There are no silicones and the scent is not overpowering. It did not make my curls crunchy, and I didn’t have to use an exorbitant amount to define my curls. I have 2c/3a low porosity long hair. I was also able to use water on day 2 to refresh my curls. Excellent value. This checked off all of my boxes ! Will be repurchasing.

Defined curls - love it
Idk how to explain I love this product. I use a hair milk to moisturize. After that absorbs (my hair absorbs fast about 15 min) I make sure had is dampened and use a diffuser in cold. CURLS ARE SO DEFINED. Distribute well tho bc it can get sticky at the tips which are usually split ends. 4b-4c hair type. Curls make me feel like 4a.
